Why then buy an inferior Paint just because it costs a few cents per gallon less than a well known first-class brand? That is folly, for a cheap paint is made of poor material and seldom lasts more than a year or two, whereas a good one should wear for five years at least. Our Crown. Cotteige Colors will not chalk peel or scale and in covering capacity and durability is superior to the majority of Paints made including White Lead and Oil.
